This is a big improvement. Whether that is a comment on the earlier apps or the latest version is still not fully clear in my head.
But I will give credit. I like the new app a lot.

I have severe doubts on almost every interaction with this airline. Not saying all employees are bad, far from it.
What I am saying is there are a whole lot of weak links in a very long chain.

Really? I'll admit I haven't flown them, but I've only had positive interactions with Thai staff.

TiT seems to be a good descriptive analysis. If you accept the Thai way to do things you're fine. Someone once called it "ish-time". The food will come in 20ish minutes, the plane will leave at 3pm-ish, the lounge will be open until 9ish.

I've needed this app to do precisely 1 thing since installing it a couple of days ago: change a seat. No go. Got an error about how the seat was unavailable. Tried a coupe of times before using Mobile Safari to make the change on ac.com.
Not terribly impressed so far. We'll see how it goes when it's time to check in next week.

I just flew home from HKG. In the TG lounge they didn't need my card at all. My boarding pass was just fine. I have tag on my carry in luggage as well if needed. Yet it never is needed.
